Women's Imaging

Lake Forest Hospital Diagnostic Imaging Centers offer a wide variety of women's imaging services, including:

Bone densitometry, or DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry), is a simple, non-invasive X-ray procedure that is used to measure bone mineral density. The results of bone densitometry estimate your risk of developing bone loss, osteoporosis or a fracture.
Breast MRI takes a more advanced look for cancers that may be too subtle to identify on mammography or ultrasound. It uses molecular signals to detect very sensitive lesions. Learn more about Breast MRI.
Breast Ultrasound may be used to evaluate palpable findings or as an adjunct to mammography. The ability to visualize a finding via ultrasound greatly helps performing a biopsy, when necessary.
Digital mammography provides images of the breast tissue without the use of X-ray films—which makes mammograms faster, more accurate and easier to share with consulting physicians.
Stereotactic breast biopsy is a minimally invasive technique where a sample of suspicious breast tissue is precisely located with a computer-guided imaging system and removed with a needle. A stereotactic breast biopsy is used to confirm whether a breast abnormality is cancerous or not.
